<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 3403590, member: 13650"]I hate to discourage anyone who's ambitious but it would seem to me this is such a beaten path at this point that why would you even want to wade into it? Aside from the legal issues, many people opt to shoot their own photos rather than pay someone else. Those that are left who are willing to send their coins to a stranger AND pay for it, are the business that everyone's trying to keep dividing up. Which can't be that many people.</p><p> I'm happy with my own photos using a copy stand a T3i,some custom lenses on a bellows and a remote shutter. It took some time but they turn out pretty good. Professional quality? Who knows. Some might say yes, some would say no. Some are way better than others. </p><p><br /></p><p> I'd offer my services to a friend but I would not want to make a business out of trying to please someone with photos. Just don't love it to that level and I agree that people can be extremely hard to satisfy. If they aren't flat out looking to sue you to begin with. Coin photography is like another hobby in itself that many will eventually pursue on their own. I think your chasing a small segment of people that grows smaller all the time. But good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
